Hot Child in the City

 I shared my favorite way to stay cool in the sweltering heat last Thursday.

I thought I would share another dress that is great for staying cool today and where I find a lot of these dresses. (Hint: If you read last weeks post you might already know.)

I actually picked up this dress while I was in NYC earlier this Summer.

There was a TERRIBLE heat wave and I was literally looking for anything that would keep me cool.

This dress seems like it would be really hot because there is so much fabric, but it really isn't. It's also black which I know some people say to stay away from when it's hot. However, y'all know I love black and even in the Summer I find myself gravitating to it. (It definitely hides the sweat.)

The thing that really sold me was the lace-up back. I feel like an open back always helps beat the heat.

Dress: H&M sold out (similar here, love this, and this) | Shoes: Shein | Sunnies: Quay Australia | Earrings: Target sold out (similar here) | Lips: Charlotte Tilbury Hot Lips Lipstick in Secret Salma 

What are your favorite pieces to wear in the Summer? Do you have any tips for staying cool? I'm heading somewhere VERY HOT on Thursday so I will take any advice. haha

Palm Jumpsuit

Hey y’all!

Today I have a fun jumpsuit to share with you. If you’re new around here you will quickly realize that rompers & jumpsuits are kind of my thing. I really can’t get enough of them, especially in the spring/summer months. I saw this one on a local boutiques instagram a few weeks ago and just had to have it. Unfortunately it sold out ASAP. However a few weeks later they ended up getting a restock and I hurried in to scoop one up. I was a little hesitant because of the tie, but after trying it on it is so cute! (If you look at the photo online they have it tied higher over your bust.)

This is going to be a piece I wear NON STOP this summer for a few reasons. First of all let’s talk about the print. As most of you know I am obsessed with palm/banana leaf print. I’ll buy anything if it has palm print on it. The second reason I love this so much is because it’s so lightweight. Lightweight pieces are a MUST in the Florida heat. The last thing is the slits in the pants. This just adds to the lightweight factor. I seriously cannot say how much I love this jumpsuit.

(If the weather is still cool where you live it would also look really cute with a jean jacket!)

Is everyone ready for the weekend? I definitely am! I’m doing a charity walk on Saturday for the Humane Society. (Ramsey gets to join too.) Then I need to clean my house and film so try on hauls for y’all! (And hopefully a little beach time.) What are you up to this weekend? Thanks for stopping by!

I really appreciate it!
